PSX4PANDORA 1.0b4

Hi everyone,

With tons of pressure built up as Pandora's are making their way to people here, I must be honest in saying I've been way behind in psx4pandora development. I have spent the past while working on it though.

While I chat, download the PND file (approval probably coming shortly for the appstore) here:
http://www.zodttd.com/downloads/psx4pandora.pnd

How to install:
1. Place the pnd in the SD card's directory: /pandora/apps/
2. Stick the SD card in your Pandora and on the desktop you will see the psx4pandora app. Run it and choose EXIT with the B button.
3. Now that the appdata directory is created on your SD card at /pandora/appdata/psx4pandora-1/ copy the PSX BIOS file scph1001.bin (all lowercase!) and your games (BIN,IMG,ISO,Z) to that directory.
4. Run psx4pandora and choose to Load A Game. Note that loading without a BIOS isn't supported currently. Play on.

What needs work:
1. The menu system! There's a command line interface available though for a frontend if available.
2. Audio. I'm not buffering it properly. Will fix.

What may be broken:
1. Loading/Saving via memory cards. Let me know!
2. Loading/Saving via save states. Wouldn't be surprised atm, but let me know. ;)
3. Frameskip causing flickering and odd graphic glitches. This is a known issue and is due to skipping the rendering of elements used in double buffering.

How to access the in-game menu: Press SPACE.

How to exit the app completely: My traditional press ABXY+L+R

How to press L2/R2 psx triggers: Press L/R on the Pandora then press SPACE. Will need a better solution.

Bring on the feedback and let's get this polished up.

Thanks,
ZodTTD

    RPG maker essentially makes Final Fantasy ripoffs, if you want to clone a Final Fantasy game it's a good engine.

    I use GBstudio to make most RPGs
  • FlareReZ @ FlareReZ:
    @elBenyo, I've heard of GB Studio, its cool that we have a IDE to create Game Boy games without any knowledge of assembly.

  • elBenyo @ elBenyo:
    It's just a detailed compiler added to the IDE, you can get a GB plugin for RPGmaker to give games a Gameboy look too.

  • Xdqwerty65 @ Xdqwerty65:

  • Xdqwerty65 @ Xdqwerty65:
    if that doesnt work then i will make a remake of any final fantasy game
  • elBenyo @ elBenyo:
    Stay motivated, don't take no for an answer. It sounds like a lot of resources to make so when people like me say that just ignore it.
  • Xdqwerty65 @ Xdqwerty65:
    ill make some tests first
  • elBenyo @ elBenyo:
    Just make project goals. Write up an outline and set and end date. Dont take a year, build up to projects that take longer.
  • Xdqwerty65 @ Xdqwerty65:
    i dont need an end date
  • Xdqwerty65 @ Xdqwerty65:
    though i cant find on the manual how to add enemies
  • elBenyo @ elBenyo:
    In the TROOP database, select which enemy you wish to have join the fight and insert them into the scene like you would any other enemy. Right click them and select "appear halfway". Then down below in the events panel, set a conditional event for when your main enemy hits a specific %hp and select the "Enemy Appear..." command on page 3. Then select the enemy you wish to appear! :D
  • Xdqwerty65 @ Xdqwerty65:
    or at least what enemies appear in which area
  • elBenyo @ elBenyo:
    thats the source
  • Xdqwerty65 @ Xdqwerty65:
    thats about rpg maker not about wolf rpg
  • elBenyo @ elBenyo:

  • Xdqwerty65 @ Xdqwerty65:
